Hyped or Afraid: Detroit Become Human

<p>Let&&num;8217&semi;s be honest&comma; I&&num;8217&semi;m genuinely afraid FOR this game&period; I&&num;8217&semi;m super hyped for the release and already have my copy pre-ordered&period; What scares me is that it may not sell as many units needed so that Quantic Dream and David Cage can continue developing amazingly interactive games&period; I want this game to succeed&period; I&&num;8217&semi;m telling everyone I know with a PS4 to put faith into a different type of game&period; Cage&&num;8217&semi;s games have always been unique&period; He has these amazing stories trapped in his head and lets us experience them through consoles&period; These stories have great characters&comma; amazing set pieces and insane twists and turns&period; Cage is the M&period; Knight Shyamalan of the video game world&period; Play through <em>Indigo Prophecy<&sol;em> in its entirety and you&&num;8217&semi;ll understand what I mean&period; The success or failure of this title may have a lasting impact on games&comma; developers and the industry&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>When was the last time that you finished a game and thought that this was an experience you thought you would never have and most likely never have again&quest; <em>Heavy Rain<&sol;em>&comma;<em> Destroy All Humans<&sol;em>&comma; and <em>Parasite Eve<&sol;em> are the titles that pop into my mind&period; <em>Heavy Rain<&sol;em> had the great overarching story that involved unique and interesting protagonists&period; Any decision that you had them make could change the end of the game&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><em>Parasite Eve<&sol;em> is a dead franchise&period; The first sequel resembled nothing from the first game&period; And I don&&num;8217&semi;t even know what they were thinking when the made <em>The 3rd Birthday<&sol;em>&period; <em>Destroy All Humans<&sol;em> is also deceased&period; The first two games in the series were great&period; But the Wii and Xbox 360 versions of the game were atrocious&period; Originality in games is slowly dying&period;  And with every original game that fails we get closer and closer to a world of only generic &&num;8220&semi;man shooters&period;&&num;8221&semi; That is a world I do not want to live in&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<figure id&equals;"attachment&lowbar;138185" aria-describedby&equals;"caption-attachment-138185" style&equals;"width&colon; 640px" class&equals;"wp-caption aligncenter"><img class&equals;"size-full wp-image-138185" src&equals;"https&colon;&sol;&sol;cdn&period;bagogames&period;com&sol;wp-content&sol;uploads&sol;2018&sol;05&sol;12014258&sol;Detroit1&period;jpg" alt&equals;"" width&equals;"640" height&equals;"421" &sol;><figcaption id&equals;"caption-attachment-138185" class&equals;"wp-caption-text">&lpar;<em>Detroit Almost Human<&sol;em> &&num;8211&semi;

Playing through all those different characters eyes as you attempt to find young Jason before he becomes another victim of the Origami Killer&period; Searching for Jason as Ethan&comma; the boy&&num;8217&semi;s father&comma; was a mind opening experience&semi; I cannot imagine not knowing the fate of a loved one&period; The tough situations that Ethan is put through and how you handle them with him really blew my mind&period; Cage can pen an amazing tale and keep you on the edge of your seat as you grip your controller so tight your knuckles turn white&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><em>Detroit&colon; Almost Human<&sol;em> looks like it is going to be another white-knuckle ride for fans of Quantic Dream games&period; Just seeing that demo hooked me&comma; the multiple decisions you have to make&comma; the detective work you do before you confront the rogue android&comma; the graphics and the multiple endings that your perfect or crappy decisions can make&period; I&&num;8217&semi;m excited to play as the three protagonists in this game&period; But I&&num;8217&semi;m most looking forward to playing the police android&period; I love detecting seeing that Batman and Sherlock Holmes are my biggest fictional heroes&excl; The more I get to the detect&comma; the happier I am&period; That&&num;8217&semi;s why I liked <em>Batman&colon; The Enemy Within<&sol;em> so much&period; And I hope to love <em>Detroit&colon; Become Human<&sol;em> just as much&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<blockquote class&equals;"twitter-tweet" data-width&equals;"500" data-dnt&equals;"true">&NewLine;<p lang&equals;"en" dir&equals;"ltr">How did Quantic Dream build the world of Detroit&colon;
